I just encountered a use case for this. I received a notification about a bug report being marked Incomplete, but I couldn't remember whether I was the reporter or not, and the notification didn't tell me. So I had to visit the Web page to find out whether it was me who was supposed to provide the missing information. I shouldn't have had to do that.

In any case, *this* bug report isn't incomplete: the problem is fully described, that you can't tell whether you're getting a notification from being the reporter. The proposed solution is probably suboptimal (it wouldn't have helped me, for example, since I don't filter by header), but that just shows we shouldn't expect end users to design solutions to the problems they report. :-)
